Working with Balfour Beatty Construction, Ahmarra have been awarded a £500,000 contract for the new Shoreham Academy in Shoreham-by-Sea.

The £30 million project, for West Sussex County Council, involves the provision of a new school complete with theatres, drama and dance studios and a sports hall with spectator seating for 450. Students will continue to study in their existing buildings until Easter 2012 and will start using the new facilities in the summer term of 2012.
